Episode notes

If you trade on unesop or susiso, like most of the time, you're actually making a big mistake. You should be using an aggregator who fills yo water across many pools rather than credit a back round opportunity. And i think what you're hinting at here that ike the party in the privileged position to extract m v doesn't necessarily have to be miners. There are all sorts of structures, like private mempools that can help usuers or other actors in the system may be a dow or a protocol, capture that m v instead. Right? This a set of wat like a block rods of backround mead of com dos.

For our latest episode, I sat down with MEV Senpai, one of the top searchers in Ethereum. He gave us the unique inside perspective of someone who finds and captures MEV himself. The result was a long & intense convo, one of the best I've had in a while.

We discussed:

The structure and actors of the MEV game
What is searching, how can you learn it, what edges exist
Intro to private relays and transaction bundles
The role of Flashbots in DEX trading
and, of course, the hot topic of the day: short-term reorgs in Ethereum

Enjoy!

Listen to conversations between Su Zhu, the CEO and CIO of Three Arrows Capital, and Hasu, an experienced crypto researcher and writer. Together with occasional guests, we explore the transformative nature of trust-minimized currency and financial services.
